“…Previous literature has also noted that students often treat momentum as a scalar [2,3,7] rather than a vector quantity. Our data suggest that a fraction of students in fact treat momentum as a vector quantity and consider direction an important factor in the exchange of momentum among objects.…”

“…Previous research on student ideas about linear momentum has primarily been misconceptions-oriented, contributing to KSI by identifying student misconceptions or difficulties in learning about momentum. For example, the literature reports that students: (1) tend to treat momentum as a scalar quantity [2][3][4][5][6][7], (2) think about momentum as dependent on either velocity or mass, but not both [2][3][4][7][8][9][10][11][12]; and (3) misunderstand or have difficulty applying conservation reasoning, in some cases using "compensation reasoning," treating the velocity of an object as though it "adjusts" to maintain a constant momentum [3,[5][6][7][12][13][14][15].…”

Much existing physics education research (PER) on student ideas about momentum focuses on the difficulties that students face when learning this topic. These difficulties are framed as obstacles for students to overcome in order to develop correct understandings of physics. Our research takes a resources-oriented approach to analyzing student responses to momentum questions, viewing student ideas as valuable and potentially productive for learning, over and above their correctness. Here, we highlight four conceptual resources that provide insight into students' ideas about momentum, which are the conservation resource, direction resource, collisions resource and properties resource. These resources are context-dependent and could be elicited and built on by instructors to support students in developing more complex and sophisticated understandings of physics.

“…The combination of several materials used are straight motion, parabolic motion, circular motion, translational dynamics, rotational dynamics, simple harmonic motion, and dynamic fluid. The phenomenon is very close in everyday life because it uses objects that are always around the city of Medan, but there are still many students who experience misconceptions [25][26]. One of the most influential factors is the mathematical formulation that is too dominant in learning.…”

Research on the development of critical thinking skills-based physics test instruments has been carried out which aims to develop instruments that meet the aspects of validity, reliability, differentiation, difficulty level and deceptive effectiveness. The type of research used is the Borg & Gall model with the stages of analyzing the problems and needs of the critical thinking test instrument, planning, developing critical thinking-based test instruments, validating material experts, construction and language, revision of expert validation, small-scale testing, small scale instrument revision, large scale test, and large scale instrument revision. Expert validation test results obtained valid test instruments. Small scale test results obtained 93% valid items, very reliable, 87% good difference power, 93% moderate difficulty and 67% good distractors. Large scale test results obtained 87% valid, reliable, 73% good difference power, 97% moderate difficulty, and 93% good distractors so that the test instrument is feasible to measure critical thinking skills.

“…Consenquently, the abstract property of impulse and momentum need a clearly visualization of concept. The inferior visualization will inflict student difficult to understand the material and also conduce negative effect towards student learning motivation (Triyani et al, 2019). Accordingly, developing multimedia based on Whiteboard Animation on impulse and momentum material is needed for infesting concept visualization explanation needs directly and interestingly, so that the student learning motivation also become enhanced.…”

Physics is one of highly difficult material study, so student tend to have low study motivation. This research aims to enhance study motivation also describe the feasibility and practicality of using Whiteboard Animation to first grade of senior high school student towards impulse and momentum. Method of this study is Research and Development (R&D) with 4D models (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). This research was conducted untill the test of feasibility and practicality of using Whiteboard Animation towards student learning motivation. The result of this study shows that multimedia based on Whiteboard Animation of impulse and momentum material is stated very feasible to use, which is shown an average of 87% (very feasible) by material expert and 84% (very feasible) by media expert. The developed multimedia was attained high response of students on field testing, which is shown an average of 89% (very practical). The result of practicality test based on student response also stated that the developed multimedia is very interesting and potential to enhance the student learning enterest. Thus, multimedia based on Whiteboard Animation of impuls and momentum material is very feasible and practical to enhance student learning motivation.
